Grilled corn is one of my family’s favorite summer side vegetables. My daughter will gobble it up any night of the week.
Sometimes to mix things up I’ll make a salad out of grilled corn rather than eating corn on the cob. This is a simple, versatile summer dish. Grilled Corn Salad is great as a side salad, in tacos, on top of mixed greens, or on grilled meats.
